You're running two Anti-virus programs:
AV: Microsoft Security Essentials *Enabled/Updated* {3F839487-C7A2-C958-E30C-E2825BA31FB5}
SP: avast! Antivirus *Enabled/Updated* {904CF271-6431-DA47-5FCE-A87D98DFB681}

These are resource hogs and will fight for your system's resources. They may also fight each other's malware definitions. Only use one Anti-virus and uninstall the other one.

Your Java is out of date. Older versions have vulnerabilities that malware can use to infect your system. Please follow these steps to remove older version Java components and update.

Why x86? I am running 64-bit windows. Also I will do that shortly, have stuff to do right now.

 

[Jacee]

Up-dating Java ---> It's for both X86 and X64 ... please read ALL instructions.

 

[zl7man]

I have done the steps for Java installs/uninstalls, is there anything else (besides fixing the multiple anti-virus softwares/malware ones - working on that now) that I should do? (such as upload a report of something or just the normal keep safe, scan stuff before downloading, read info about it before download).

Either way Thank you (to everyone) for support so far.

After doing my instructions in post #21 (above), please let us know how your computer is acting.

Sorry it took me so long to reply to your last post. I did the instructions. The reason it took me so long is because I wanted to see how my computer was running before post. So far so good. I rest easier knowing that I solved a problem with help.

Thank you to everyone who helped me.
(assuming that this is done I will mark as solved after given the all clear)
